Their coffee is gross unless you add a tonne of cream and sugar. Their sandwiches are just average sandwiches and no cheaper than most other places (does anyone actually crave them, or is it just convenience). Donuts and bagels are the same everywhere.

I could never understand why people go completely whacky for Tim Horton's every morning when the greasy spoon diner at the corner probably has better coffee and maybe even food.
I agree the coffee tastes very average, as a coffee geek who only drinks black coffee and espresso I would have to say that the one thing Tim's has going for it is that the caffeine content per ml is extremely high. The bottom line is its a good buzz....look around at Tim's and if you see older people there they will usually be smiling.

btw, McDonald's coffee is way to hot and i don't agree about 7-11. 7-11 coffee is sometimes days old as they don't have the turnaround. Good percolated coffee is about turnaround and freshness.
